International Legal Business

Single market and globalization as well as cultural differences, language barriers and other economic and legal conditions require sophisticated expansion strategies.

Legal consultancy in international business is one of our special areas of work. We offer this service to German companies doing business in North America, for example, and to North American companies acting in Germany. It goes without saying that this type of legal work is carried out in close co-operation with lawyers in the foreign countries involved. Main fields are the establishment of subsidiaries and their ongoing legal support, legal advice for establishing new distribution and sales structures, all contract matters as well as legal support in litigation and arbitration.

Drafting and negotiating contracts, both in German and English, is part of everyday business. So is the close co-operation within an informal network of lawyers in Europe, North America, China, Japan and South East Asia based on personal business relationships.
